Have a diet buddy

Two heads are better than one, right? Then, why not ask a friend or two to join you? Discuss your weight loss goals and share tactics on how you will achieve it. This also makes it easier for you to have a motivation when one of you is down in the dumps.

Listen to your body

It will tell you when you are already full when eating and when you are really hungry or just bored. This way, you won’t confuse yourself if you need to grab a snack or just have to hydrate yourself.

I will be fit and healthy this year! And so millions of people said all over the globe every time New Year comes. But seriously, how many of them have maintained to achieve this goal all throughout the year? Not everybody, right? If you are one of them, here are some tips to keep yourself motivated in achieving your 2015 weight loss goals.

Keep little reminders

Always remind yourself about your goals. Put a little note in your mirror, mobile phone, and personal laptop or any place where you can always see it. This way you won’t be forgetting about what you have committed to.

Monitor your progress

But don’t get depressed if you haven’t noticed anything yet. The first few months may not show any changes but as long as you have maintained your current weight then praise yourself. It’s better than to gain a few numbers on the scale.

Have a time table

Achieving a target will be easier if you have a schedule. Let’s say by the end of the third month you should’ve lost at least two pounds or by the end of the first month you should be able to do 30 push-ups.

Keep going

Who cares if you still don’t have your dream body? A few minutes of work out every day may seem like it won’t make any difference but think of what will you gain if just laze around down all day long. What important is you have started already. All you have to do is to keep going!
